Fantastic! - Fantastic art. Definitely a must to see. She was super knowledgeable about each piece. I wouldn’t have had such a great experience without her knowledge!

Great tour - Rocio is the best! - Rocio was amazing! She hit on all of the important points of the museum and paused for questions on the way. She was funny and informative throughout the 2 hours.
The only thing I would say is the meeting point is confusing. The link to the specific meet up is incorrect and takes you to a place a few minutes away from the actual meeting point. We almost missed our tour because of this but were able to ask around and eventually catch up to the group.
Other than that this tour was great!

Great Tour! - The tour guide (Benny) was very informative and was clearly passionate about the Prado and the art inside. Got so much more by having a guide. Highly recommend.

Amanda, a masterful guide - Our guide Amanda was wonderful. So knowledgeable about art history, interpretation of an art piece, or how it was restored (well or not!) She was an excellent speaker and pulled everybody into her art stories, making us gasp or laugh at certain times. We loved Prado so much more with her guiding us.

Great experience - We loved the experience. Rocio, our guide, made an amazing job providing a lot of information in a very entertaining way. We had a great time, and learned a lot. A guided tour is worth it when you have a knowledgable guide. There are a lot of art and history details that you will miss if going on your own. Highly recommended

Educational and Enjoyable - The Prado Museum tour guide provides an enriching and well-organized experience, highlighting the museum's vast collection of European art. The guide's deep knowledge and engaging storytelling bring to life masterpieces by artists such as Velázquez, Goya, and El Greco. The pacing felt a little rushed due to time constraints but overall our guide was able to make the most of the tour. Overall, the tour guide greatly enhances the visit, making it both educational and enjoyable.

Book a tour to navigate the Prado! - Very good fly over of the Prado. To navigate this museum alone would be overwhelming and difficult. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the artists and the historical context. Tour was quite large (30 people) and museum was crowded but we had earphones and were able to both hear and experience the works. Was good to do a late afternoon tour as we still had two hours to enjoy the rest of the museum on our own.

Everything OK. - The visit didn't start very well (called 15 minutes early, the guide wasn't there; the group then had to wait further for late visitors so it started after the scheduled time), but then it continued very well. Overall satisfactory.

Missed out. - Due to airline delays we could not make our tour. We forfeited the money for the six of us. I understand the refund policy but a small refund would have been nice but rules are rules. I learned never to book something like this on a day when you travel.
